GEMMA LAURENCE
6PM - 6.30PM

A Brooklyn-based folk artist from the coast of Maine, Gemma laurence has been named an “up-and-comer” in the queer music scene by NPR Music and performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Having grown up on the coast of Maine and the hills of Oxfordshire, Gemma’s time on both sides of the Atlantic influenced her unique sound - a fusion of foot-stomping Americana with a hint of English folk. Crafting a lush soundscape of acoustic guitars, dreamy harmonies, and found sounds, her timeless tracks call her listeners home to the people and places left behind for new beginnings.
